paca_ptrs should be large enough to hold the boot_cpuid, hence, its
lower boundary is set to the bigger one between boot_cpuid+1 and
nr_cpus.
On the other hand, some kernel component: -1. the timer assumes cpu0
online since the timer_list->flags subfield 'TIMER_CPUMASK' is zero if
not initialized to a proper present cpu. -2. power9_idle_stop() assumes
the primary thread's paca is allocated.
Hence lift nr_cpu_ids from one to two to ensure cpu0 is onlined, if the
boot cpu is not cpu0.
